Illinois Bans Courthouse Filming of Abuse Victims | Chicago News

Published 1 day, 9 hours ago
Description

Illinois just passed a bold new law, SB 4038, designed to shield domestic violence survivors by banning unauthorized filming and photography of victims and witnesses inside courthouses—directly countering abusers’ tactics to intimidate and re-victimize through surveillance. Backed by bipartisan support, the law creates uniform statewide enforcement with real consequences: Class A misdemeanor charges for violators. This isn’t just about rules—it’s about restoring safety so survivors can pursue justice without fear.
